Looking forward to tomorrow, a friends sister is having a hen night or so she thinks. My boss has kindly loaned me his brand new Princess V45 for the weekend, so first I am picking up all her girlfriends tomorrow for a bit of a cruise.
She is going to meet her sister by the quay and she thinks she is then meeting up with her friends for a drink in town, but we will suprise her by arriving with all hers friends on the boat already and picking her up for a champagne cruise around the fjords.
Me and my mate and 15 tipsy women onboard, should be interesting.

Can I be your new bestest mate? for a minimum duration of a day, starting tomorrow.. best mates always share;)
 
I thought as you do when I took a load of hairdressers out on Bigwow.
IT WAS A NIGHTMARE!!!

They got legless, spilt booze all over the decks, 1 fell through an open hatch, 4 of them sat on the upturned dinghy and split a seam. The final straw was when one of them was sick in the saloon.

Never again

Good luck

The boys are always worse than the girls.;)
 
The worst charter skipper gig I ever did was a hen do.

Returning from Cowes (why is it always Cowes with hen dos?) at well past midday on the Sunday I banned 3 of them from coming on deck at all, made 3 of them sit in the cockpit fully harnessed to the boat (no wind at all) and made the only one capable of doing anything (the pregnant one) drive whilst I washed the decks. Which took me well over an hour.
When we got back to base there were 3 complaints from other boat owners waiting for us. I fully sympathised with the complainants, and had in fact gone over to apologise at the time (for all the good that did) but I had about as much chance of controlling that bunch of booze fueled "ladies" as reversing the tide.

Another skipper has a similar story form another hen do charter, except half way back across the Solent a chap surfaces who had clearly been entertained by one of the ladies and demands to be taken back to Cowes!
 
Sorry all !!!

You don't know my home turf, the Fjords of Stavanger the way I do, so I am the obvious choice .. :D

Alf,
Forgive me before I start, 'Er du Sidis?' (Det er tjue ni år siden jeg var sist i Stavanger)
Although I used Google to translate the last bit I remembered the first all by my self:D

:D:D:D

reminds me of a trip on the Kodak yacht club boat (Kodak Gold) where a colleague of mine, who should remain nameless, moonied another yacht on the way back in to Gosport... just at the time a gust of wind got up.. she ended up close to being in the drink with a fast tide flowing out the port.. her bum went between the top and bottom ropes and saved her from not going overboard... salt of the earth sort she was:eek:

Ekta Siddis her !!!

Born and bread in Stavanger!! Multiple generations of my family from Stavanger and surrounding area (back to 1650's .... spent my first 28 years sailing the fjords of Stavanger and rest of Norway, and this is where I have some of my first memories from... and know the fjords very well indeed...
 
Worst charter for me was last year.

8 Chinese students who had filled up (overfilled) on Big Mac breakfasts on their way to the boat. Some had even brought theirs on board.

Within an hour they were doing the Ronald McD hurling thing. Those that had brought their brekkie on board were chucking up back into the bags. I did wonder if it had improved the original contents.

Lovely, just lovely.

A well known phrase, (If it sounds to good to be true it usually is). Take a spare toiletmacerator and a red wine stain removal kit.
